Knows what a fatty is.
Christmas eve dinner voted by my kids was pork ribs. I threw a rack of beef ribs on for Daddy.
I cooked the 3 bone rack for 5.5 hours on my Yoder at 275. I started spritzing with water/Worcestershire sauce at the 4 hour mark. I also had a water pan in the smoker. It was in the 50s and humid.
I went for a "quick" drink at a buddy's house and when I came home at the 5.5 hour mark, they appeared to "probe like butter" and were anywhere from 209-220 degrees internal temp. I panicked, pulled them off, and tented them with foil for 30-45 minutes while we prepared everything else.
When served, the bottom/edges were crusty as expected as I cooked on the lower rack of the Yoder. The meat was delicious and moist, but there was still visable fat. Some of it was pull-apart tender like I expect with a short rib, but some was still not fully rendered!
I watched Franklins video and he swears up and down that he cooks naked and just spritz at 285 degrees for 6 hours or so.
Franklin stopped by Muellers BBQ and I saw that they wrapped their beef ribs in plastic wrap!
What do you guys do to get super mushy beef ribs with little visible fat? Do I just need to cook a little longer? Do I need to wrap in foil? I could steam, but that would ruin the bark.
I have made beef rib pastrami a bunch of times and the steaming phase at the end always takes care of tenderness for me.
Thanks
Chris
